Hello, my name is Kristin and I am a licensed Speech and Language Pathologist with 4 years of experience working with students K-21+ with severe special needs. I am passionate about social-emotional learning, life skills, and AAC. My years of experience vary from time at behavior regulation programs in private schools and special education programs within MA Public Schools. I hope you find my products easily adaptable to your needs and supportive of your own teaching styles. Please do not hesitate to reach out with specific requests for your classrooms.
As a service provider, I believe the best and least restrictive environment for a student to practice their own communication is within the classroom. That is why my preference for services is the push-in model. From my own experience, I have found that this is the most successful environment for both the student and the teacher. It allows you to support the child's communication needs in real time and it promotes generalization outside of the speech room.
Yet to be added
Undergraduate degree from Syracuse University. Masters degree from Long Island University.
I am relocating to the west coast and will be taking a 5-8 week road trip across the country. Due to this travel, I am unable to practice speech therapy while on the road. So please do not hesitate to reach out with specific requests for students struggling in your own classrooms - whether it be requests for visual aids, graphic organizers, activity ideas based on a life skill, etc.
